Guide Conventions

The following conventions are used in this guide:

The names of all interface elements (menus, buttons, window titles, dialog boxes, titles, etc.) are shown in a Helvetica Bold font. For instance, “Click on the OK button.” means the user should click on the OK button in a dialog box.

Menu Menu Option is used to indicate a menu choice. For instance, File Open means the user should click on the File menu and select the Open option.

Whenever a combination of keys on the keyboard should be pressed simultaneously, they will be displayed in the following manner:

J + omeans the user should press the Control key and O key at the same time. In this case the result would be the display of the Open dialog box.

Note that on most PC keyboards the Jkey is labeled Ctrl. On most Macintosh computers it is labeled Control. For readability, we have used the Macintosh Jkey throughout this guide.

Macintosh users should use the Command key instead of the Control key in keystroke combinations.
